Placed a small fan in front of the damper on the evaporator. Got sustained boils on all compartments of the flue pan. The fan pushed the heat through the evaporator to the flue pans which have greater surface area. We could see flames at the back of the evaporator. Generated more steam too. It was a better day cooking.
Mid-20s overnight; not as cold as forecast. Sunny and upper-30s during the day. May collect tomorrow.
